The description actually mentions fantasy as well. Why you'd call it "SCI-FI Ghetto" then is beyond my grasp.

Sucking the dicks of Doug Walker and Mr. Enter makes you forget trope names.

And here's TV Tropes getting pissy that award shows don't treat comedy seriously.
PRO TIP: every award ceremony in existence is run by a bunch of old farts that nobody should ever take seriously.
ever.

I never got why Tvtropes seems to have such affection for Doug and his ilk.

Because they're both autistic and dumb.

Well, they did defend Dan Olson when one troper found out that we called him a pedophile.

Well of course. If it weren't for those pesky ads and the revenue they bring. They'd probably bring back all those creepy pedophile-spawning trope pages.

For fuck's sake, there is 84 pages for TGWTG shit. OP should add TGWTG as a tag. 83 pages dedicated to a bunch of nobodies (Larry and Wez don't count as nobodies, considering that before they did this on YouTube, they did it on TV).

I haven't seen Black Swan, but it doesn't even sound like Sci-Fi.

It isn't.

Because they want to be Doug Walker. They want to sperg in front of a camera and go to conventions where people will throw themselves at them for sperging in front of a camera.

When you think about it Doug’s entire schtick is to nitpick and overreact, which is exactly what tropers do. They probably see him as a god-like figure.

Given that the only ‘critic’ they know of is Doug Walker, I’d be inclined to agree.

Holy shit, just the sheer unwarranted smugness about it makes me laugh.

I mean, yeah, a lot of mainstream critics are dumb, but TV Tropes is just as, if not more dumb.

Case in point, just look at the YMMV and WMG pages of anything you come across by.

Which mainstream critics are they talking about?From what i know critics even the long established ones have never actually dismissed animation.Ebert frequently lauded good animated movies.So who are they talking about exactly?

Well to most tropers animation actually means shitty magical girl anime. They’re just pissed that Magical Loli High School Extreme or whatever shit they happen to be fapping to at the moment hasn’t been « acknowledged as art » by those accursed ignorant critics.

• Anthony "A-Log" LoGatto is less known for his videos, and more known for his overblown hatred of Chris-Chan, to the point that "A-Logs" became a catch all term for members of Chris's Hate Dumb.

• The Emoji Movie is probably more well-known for how using emojis as its main focus soon proved to be an Audience-Alienating Premise due to how Totally Radical it sounded, being a ripoff of Wreck-It Ralph, The LEGO Movie and Inside Out, having a poorly-written plot, poorly-written characters, somehow managing to pull an inverse 8.8,note and supposedly being a replacement for two cancelled films about Popeye and Medusa, respectively, than the fact that it's even a film at all. And if the controversy over its actual quality wasn't bad enough, a few months later the film would be dragged into the Harvey Weinstein sex scandal (see 'Real Life') when one of its stars, T. J. Miller, was accused by an ex-girlfriend of choking and punching her mid-coitus without her permission.

• Downplayed with Earthworm Jim; while it still remains popular to this day, chances are that you'll hear somebody bring up the transphobic remarks made by creator Doug TenNapel to a game journalist for criticizing the game.

I have a good feeling that tropers have no idea what "controversy" even means.

It’s only a controversy if:
1. It happens in their myopic universe
2. They have an interest in the controversy
3. They can somehow force a blurb about it on the site

Everything else never existed.

There's also this

Duke Nukem Forever is known primarily for two things: being delayed for over a decade, and the fact that when it did finally come out it was found to contain extremely outdated attitudes toward race and gender, most infamously a "capture the flag"-style minigame based around abducting women.

Yes, that last thing was totally why everyone hated the DNF we got.

It's like they never played the game, which was a janky piece of shit.

They unironically defend Sonic 2006. They don't care about the quality of a game, just as long as it's not racist, sexist, transphobic, MEAN SPIRITED!!!, etc.
